Veddy niiiice, hiiiigh fiiive!
Fursuit question: Do you know any fursuit maker that can do mechanical adaptations? Like, I want to have a movable feather crest...I think it would be gnarly!
Thank ya luv!
I heard you were interested in getting your suit from One Fur All. They make fabulous suits. I'm a huge fan of
As for making your crest mobile, I think that's a difficult detail to work out. It would possibly require animatronics or some sort of weights/pulley system. Many suit builders are more than willing to try new things, but I can't say I know of any that do animatronics. The only thing that comes to mind is a diagram on Matrices.net, go here and look at the bottom diagram. Perhaps a modified version of that might work. The crest could be held open by a spring and the hollow part could be at the bottom, so that when the string was pulled it would pull it down rather than up like it is in the picture.
I'm just tossing ideas out there at this point. I don't know of any animatronic fursuit builders offhand. I'm sure there are some out there, but they will of course cost more. A movable crest would be very awesome! I hope you're able to find something that works. And when you do take pics!
I really want to have a movable crest and my idea would be stealing this patent on retractable bristles on a brush: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/.....6/#cid:7499073
Each feather will be movable and replaceable, the apparatus will be embedded in the head fur, and will be controlled by a servo (think RC car steering). Since the suit will have it's own power supply for cooling (rechargeable laptop 12cell lithium battery), I can tap into that for the crest servo.
I bought all my foam yesterday for the head (expensive!), hot glue gun, some more fur (with blue iridescence), and some really neat footpad material!! I still need more fur, but at least I can start on the "meat". ;P
Thank you for your help, I liked those diagrams on the matrices site!! It is much appreciated! *snuggles*

Illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 is a brush body 10 with an integral handle 12 . The brush body 10 is formed with a hollow chamber 14 therein and a perforated panel 16 through which a plurality of bristles 18 extend. Within the chamber 14 is a generally wedge shaped member 20 to which the bristles 18 are attached.
A plurality of guide channels 22 are formed in the wall of the brush body 10 within the chamber 14 . Studs 24 engage the channels 22 to guide movement of the wedge shaped member 20 and bristles 18 . A plurality of springs 26 are positioned in recesses 28 in the wedge shaped member 20 . The springs 26 engage the panel 16 and are in compression to thereby urge the wedge shaped member 20 and bristles 18 toward the retracted position.
Engaging the wedge shaped member 20 on the cam surface 30 is a wheel or roller 32 in turn rotatably attached to a link arm 34 . The link arm 34 is attached to a sliding button 36 extending into a recess 38 in the handle 12 . Thus, manual movement of the sliding button 36 causes the bristles 18 to retract and extend. The recess 38 is shaped at 40 to provide a detent for the sliding button 36 . As shown, the sliding button 36 is shaped to engage the detent 40 when the bristles 18 are extended thereby locking the bristles in the extended position.
I can't wait to see it when it's finished! :D
I still need elastic, more plastic mesh, and a mannequin head.
Hehe!! Me too!
